Private View at Brooklyn Museum
Private View of Frida Kahlo: Appearances Can Be Deceiving at the Brooklyn Museum, New York.
On February 6, members of the V&AAF attended the Private View of Frida Kahlo: Appearances Can Be Deceiving at the Brooklyn Museum, New York. The group enjoyed the opening reception in the main lobby of the museum and viewed the exhibition.
Based on the V&A’s record-breaking exhibition Frida Kahlo: Making Her Self Up, it is the largest US exhibition in ten years devoted to the iconic painter. The exhibition also includes new loans and dozens of pre-Columbian antiquities from the Brooklyn Museum’s own collection.
Frida Kahlo: Appearances Can Be Deceiving runs at the Brooklyn Museum through May 12.
